Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Anne Lindfjeld

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was Keep. As a comment was requested, I'll leave one. There seemed to be sufficient coverage by reliable sources in Denmark: FHM, and MTV. COI isn't a reason for deleting a notable subject. We have to avoid systematic bias. Sancho 21:39, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Anne Lindfjeld

Non-notable, autobiography This is a poorly written autobiography, with lots of red links. It is just vanity. The author has a similar name. I don't see how it can be improved much. It does not appear to be a notable subject. Bearian 19:07, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

  • The author is User:Lindfjeld. Bearian 19:17, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete Poor English, vanity article, little known Danish TV personality... --David Andréas 19:25, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
  • tag article with notability and verify, and give the author a chance to show that the subject is notable. Capmango 23:03, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete but has potential If the administrator making the decision could comment, this would be good. This article is poorly written. It's possible that, if better written and includes facts that aren't included now (don't know the celebrity so I can't add facts), that this might be a notable article. As far as being a little known Danish TV personality, such statement is potentially biased IF the person is somewhat known in Denmark. (There are a lot of notable articles of people I haven't heard of, such as famous mathematicians, actors, and others that, upon second thought, I should know). Fineday 06:00, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment There is a huge difference between mathematicians and European MTV models. Just because people may see her on TV by flipping through the channels in Denmark, or perhaps in a little known music video or magazine spread, doesn't place her on par with famous mathematicians and actors. Given that this article is written for English speaking audiences, who probably will never find her notable unless she storms British or American pop culture, there is no real claim to notabilty. --David Andréas 18:17, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
I mostly agree except I disagree with the idea of the article having only a English speaking audience so article should be geared to that audience. Some foreign language wikipedia articles have horrible summaries and lack of detail for well known Americans. We should not reciprocate. Fineday 03:20, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
  • KeepSomeone said she is the HOST of a Danish MTV. If true, keep. Fineday 01:39, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Note: This debate has been included in the list of Denmark-related deletions. -- John Vandenberg 13:04, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep -- I don't care for COI editing, but if this person hosts an MTV show in Denmark (and she does), she's notable. See also da:Anne Lindfjeld. Finally, I note her name appears in another article, Hatesphere; I'm not sure that band is notable however the article has been around for 2 years and been edited by many different editors, so perhaps it is. --A.

  • Keep, notable (if marginally) as host of Danish MTV show. NawlinWiki 18:23, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. The article is generally worthless as it stands now, but that's a reason to fix it, not to delete it. I feel that being a host on Denmark's MTV sufficiently covers WP:N. Trusilver 18:25, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
